If York were in possession, the Fev "trainer" shouldn't be on the field. He was the same at Dewsbury, he's on the pitch more than Keith Senior!

As a Sheffield fan, I refute that possibility! Keith is the King of On-Field Trainers and you all know it.

I went to Sheffield v Barrow today. Sheffield weren't great but were ultimately too good for Barrow, who are now almost certainly relegated. Which is a shame, but the table doesn't lie.

It was worth going to see Menzie Yere attempt to convert his own try after the hooter. It did not end well, but I now know he kicks with his left foot.

Come on is that possible?!

So in the last 8 mins of the fev v York game York kicked for touch, the fev trainer was still on the field. Instead of the ball going to touch and fev getting the scrum it hits the fev trainer and ricochets onto a fev player and then goes into touch. York are then awarded the scrum and then score a try moments later. I think that moment alone took the game away from fev, what a blooper. 

And the conspiracy theory continues...

On now. Good game so far, although the camera angle makes for difficult viewing sometimes.

Strange comment.  Fevs policy of keeping the guy on field backfired and more or less became the difinitive reason they lost the game.

We criticise the Refs, Sky commentators, VRs but the clubs have a big say in how the game is played.  

There should be genuine reasons to enter the playing area, not any numbnut wandering on and off with a bottle of water or bandage in his hand.

More like watching a game from the terraces at Belle Vue, through a pair of binoculars.

There was a conspiracy among their supporters that Fev would not make the play-offs. It amused me at the time. If I cared I'd find it.

Ok mate.  Confusing that’s all.

York played extremely consistently and kept in the race.  Fev had chances, blew them and then the Trainer did the rest (albeit York has to score).

The Comp has a long way to go yet, but York have really exceeded expectations this year.  Tremendous effort all round.
